How fitting that shepherds should first hear the news That the Savior Christ Jesus was born, For He’s the Good Shepherd Who lays down His life That He might lead wand’ring sheep home– He came to lead wand’ring ones home.
How fitting the message of glory and peace That the angels delivered to them, For Christ through His life would bring glory to God And through His death peace unto men– His death would bring peace unto men.
Beautiful Savior, Precious Redeemer, Sin’s Sacrifice– Now our eyes have seen God’s salvation in the person of Jesus Christ. In the person of Jesus Christ.
How fitting that there in that dark winter sky Shone the star sent to mark where He lay, For Jesus Himself is the Bright Morning Star That drives our sin’s darkness away– His light drives sin’s darkness away.
How fitting that wise men should seek for this Child And their precious gifts offer to Him, For Jesus embodies the wisdom of God And He is God’s gift unto men– He’s God's greatest gift unto men.
Beautiful Savior, Precious Redeemer, Sin’s Sacrifice– Now our eyes have seen God’s salvation in the person of Jesus Christ. In the person of Jesus Christ.
